This could become a big problem too. It could lead to the end of days where technology conquers human beings(Terminator) which is why rapid development of technology is not always a good thing in this aspect.

Constraints need to be applied at every stage to limit the power of developing technology.
I also thought in that direction. If artificial intelligence will be able to quickly and independently develop and improve, easily surpass this person, then there is a danger of “car uprising,” as was the case in the movie Terminator. Our scientists need to foresee this possibility so that this does not come as a surprise to humanity. In addition, all that we call fiction, then comes true. Apparently, the connection of times works here, that is, information from time travelers gets into the past. It is just not clear if we can change our future. There is a theory that states that past, present and future has already happened and we can simply be at a certain point in this time.

I would like to say yes that bitcoin lead to the singularity. Bitcoin is a well designed cryptocurrency which technology is Blockchain. If you see the success of bitcoin from the bottom to now then you will realise how Bitcoin grow the number one cryptocurrency. It's necessary that bitcoin lead to the singularity and if it's nothing happen then bitcoin will pay for this.

Due to the rapid progression of fantastically powerful computer networks, this point of no return, the technological singularity, now appears more accurate and imminent than ever. The bitcoin network, for example, has demonstrated exponential growth in total hashrate since it first came online in 2009.

The computer network are not as advanced as you assume they are,almost every network can be compromised as they all have some downfalls even an optimized network will have some limiting factors as it cannot be generalized to all scenarios.

Bitcoin won't lead to any sort of singularity. Any amalgamation of man and machine will likely only involve a very limited application of technology at first, likely focusing on banking information and identification. There won't be any mention of Bitcoin with that kind of technology unless someone outside of a state-controlled entity implements it first. It will continue to propagate the fiat system and will stay that way until there is a major shake-up of society, which may never happen in our lifetimes.

The "singularity" is much more complex of a topic than simply believing a cryptocurrency will somehow push humanity into a technological era. There is not a single crypto that will do anything remotely close to that, however, cryptos will likely have a fair amount of room in the future to exist in. The technological progress would lead to an explosion of potential for cryptos, and that may result in a crypto golden age, as it were.

Bitcoin networks are challenging to violate because with the Blockchain platform there are many advantages and it is difficult to find vulnerabilities to penetrate. Computer networks are increasingly expanding because of the increase in the number of users, increasing the platform of Bitcoin. I believe it will soon change the whole economic structure of the world.

This would happen if people were to become too lazy and just create machines in order to do work for them. That might be happening now though I don't think we will see the day in which everything is made by AI. For sure, great minds know that such a scenario could happen at any given time and are doing things to avoid just that, and are setting limitations on what they can build and what they cannot. I'm still aware that mankind is still pushing its limitations harder, though still knows the boundaries of their abilities and respects that in order to not create something stupid (though let's be honest, there are quite a few people who are really stupid enough to go beyond things that shouldn't be done, but the majority still knows what's good.) Bitcoin does not do that, nor will ever do that, until, again, people become too lazy and create robots to do work which needs full human intervention and governance.
